A major new feature of the Zone is support for IPX and DirectPlay games. We strongly encourage you to give this a try.

Instructions:

Download sat.do Gaming Zone from download page. Make sure no games are open during this process to avoid conflicts with installation. After installation is complete run game and select multiplayer menu where you will see either "IPX" or "sat.do Lobby For DirectPlay". After choosing a option you may now create a game or search for games to join. You can uninstall sat.do Gaming Zone and all changes made will be reverted back. I have also provided direct links to original zone games in the downloads page that have been tested and work.

Known Issues:

• All major issues with how game handles server connection and sending initial data to client have been resolved. NAT/CG-NAT connection issues have been fixed as well, no need for port forwarding or opening ports. Multiplayer matches are now working but need further testing.

Upcoming Features:

As a game host you will be able to set a custom map for match even if other players dont have the map. Zone Client will download and install game resources before host starts the match.

More features: We are working on adding more features to the Zone. We are currently working on ZoneFriends application so you can add friends and chat with them.

Also matchmaking lobbies ZoneLan-IPX and ZoneLan-DirectPlay are coming soon!
